In a letter sent out by Rep. Joe Sestak's attorney Jared Solomon, he claimed Sestak "was willing to put his life on the line to defend Israel," and it was "offensive and outrageous to suggest that he does not stand with Israel." Reading the above statements, one would have come naturally to a conclusion that Joe Sestak was running for office in Israel.

In a normal world, it does not make sense for any candidate running for office to claim that he was willing to put his life on the line to defend a foreign state. It certainly makes no sense to have to defend how one "stands with" a foreign state. But when it comes to Israel, there is really nothing ordinary or conventional. Just for Israel, our lawmakers have to whore themselves to show how much they are willing to do for it, proclaiming that they are willing to put their lives on the line in order to defend it. Can't you see how wrong this picture is?

Congressman Joe Sestak could have responded to those attack ads challenging his lack of support for Israel by declaring that he is Senatorial candidate for the United States of America and not Israel, and he is loyal to no countries other than the United States of America. That was all Rep. Joe Sestak needed to say. But instead, Rep. Sestak felt the need to respond to the attack ads by whoring himself, like most of our lawmakers, to demonstrate how pro-Israel he was.

The sun, moon and earth must be aligned or something. We are extremely surprised that Sen. Chuck Schumer actually took the time to write an open letter to Apple, after spending ALL his time catering to Israel's every need. It must be a slow day at work - in serving Israelis - for Chuck.

President George Washington's warning in his farewell address on the dangers of "passionate attachment of one nation for another" is so true now more than ever.

So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation), facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation.

As avenues to foreign influence in innumerable ways, such attachments are particularly alarming to the truly enlightened and independent patriot. How many opportunities do they afford to tamper with domestic factions, to practice the arts of seduction, to mislead public opinion, to influence or awe the public councils. Such an attachment of a small or weak towards a great and powerful nation dooms the former to be the satellite of the latter.

Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy to be useful must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.

Remember President George Washington's warning, and remember well. This brings us to the traitorous group Emergency Committee for Israel started by none other than Israel Firsters William Kristol and Gary Bauer. When asked about this group, Kristol said they are "the pro-Israel wing of the pro-Israel community." How an American who made treasonable statements like these for years and yet still remains relevant is beyond us. Anyone who advocates something similar for countries other Israel would have been called out as a traitor and be shunned from public long ago.

When was the last time the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate pass a resolution calling for the release of an American solder and express concern for his well-being? We certainly do not remember. But just to show you how the Israel Lobby got our lawmakers by their balls, H.Res.1359 and S.Res.571, which call for the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, who is being held captive by Hamas, have been passed in both the House and the Senate.
